What is traditional distillation?

Traditional distillation is a process that involves heating a liquid to create vapor and then cooling the vapor back into a liquid to separate and purify its components based on their different boiling points. It has been used for centuries to produce alcoholic beverages like whiskey and brandy, as well as essential oils and other distilled products. Traditional distillation typically involves pot stills or alembic stills and is still practiced in many regions around the world.


Why many old stills are made from copper metal?

Stills can be made from aluminum, iron, glass, brass, steel even clay. Most alcohol stills that are used today are made out of either stainless steel or copper. Both are very good conductors of heat and both metals won't put any bad chemicals into your final spirit. However, copper has one important advantage over all the other metals when distilling. It has been used for so many years because copper actually reacts with alcohol on a molecular level making the final spirit taste better. Copper tends to react with sulfur, an awful smelling element that is created naturally by yeast while fermenting. When distilling the sulfer comes in contact with the copper, it binds together to make hydrogen sulfide and isobutyl mercaptans which then forms copper sulfate. The copper sulfate then will stick itself to the copper making it necessary to scrub and clean the still thoroughly after each use. This cleaning makes it all the better since its better to have the rotten egg smell going down your sink rather than ending up in the nose of your next bourbon.


Why does a mixotroph lose it plastid and stills survives?

These organisms are mixotrop. So they feed themselves by two ways. One is synthesysing the food themselves with the help of sunlight in the cell in the plastids, while the second way is absorbing directly required elements from organic and inorganic materials from outside. So the second path of nutrition is open to them in the absence of plastid. So they survive.


What is stills disease?

Still's Disease is a type of arthritis, typically seen in very high fevers and a deep, pinkish rash. Although first recognised in children, it is now known to also affect adults, and in the latter case is known as adult-onset Still's disease. It is uncertain what causes Still's Disease. Possible theories include that it is due to infection with a microbe, or that it is a hypersensitive or autoimmune disorder.
